I was a little skeptical, but it surprised me. It's not perfect, but this is the closest imitation to the Fromsoft formula so far. And I mean that in every way possible, from the gameplay, to the npcs, music, dialogue, mechanics in general. Also, I think it's worth mentioning that there are even some improvements on the formula in some areas, for example, lost souls appearing at the fog gate if you lost them in a boss fight, or having to fight a big boss AND BEING ABLE TO SEE WHAT HE'S GOING TO DO (WOW!!!). I actually was having plenty of fun with this that I decided to not finish the demo to experience the game when it comes out. And yes, this is a Pinocchio game, but idk...I'm kinda digging the dark fairy tale vibe lol.

Btw, don't spam dodge like in Dark Souls or Elden Ring. The dodge feels a little bit awkward, and spamming only worsens that. You should get comfortable parrying anyway.

★★★½ – Great ✅

If you like immersive sims, you can't go wrong trying this one. Kinda plays like a stealthy Duke Nukem with parkour thrown in there. Cool interactions and routes. Really digging the cutscenes and dialogue. Excited to see this when it comes out. It would be great to change the font to something more readable though.

★★★½ – Great ✅

A puzzle automation game where you make letters. Sounds simple, but I can see myself getting addicted to this.

★★★ – Good ✅

Feels similar to Deliver Us The Moon, but more interesting. Will be checking it out whenever releases. I recommend using a controller, because keyboard feels awkward when interacting with stuff. Performance is decent, but had a texture glitch throughout the whole demo.

★★½ – Average ✅

Fun mechanic, although clunky. Could be good depending on how the puzzles go later on. Please tell me that narrator goes away later in the game 😑

★★½ – Average ✅

I don't think this is something I'd try after release, but if you like tower defense, this feels solid.

★★½ – Average ✅

A minimalistic tower defense/city builder. Pretty chill.

★★½ – Average ✅

Blood, but with parkour? Not really vibing with the synthwave aesthetic, but it plays well enough. The katana feels great to use. Parkouring feels a little awkward at times. It has RPG elements...for some reason.

★★½ – Average ✅

Cat.

★★ – Bad, but playable ✅

Your typical roguelike thingy, nothing of interest for me personally. Cool ass intro though, damn.

★★ – Bad, but playable ✅

Vampire Survivors, but fps. Kinda got tired of VS already, so...meh.

★★ – Bad, but playable ✅

Very barebones.

★★ – Bad, but playable ❌

Low budget Max Payne with horrible models. I kinda like the noir style intro, but not much else. Plays and feels cheap.

★★ – Bad, but playable ❌

I can quickly tell I will not like this. I guess they went for an ICO vibe, but the art style doesn't really suit the game. A pain in the ass to play too. Performance is pretty bad considering how it looks, but that could improve.

★½ – Unplayable ❌

Nothing much to say apart from boring. I would prefer to play Space Engine.

★½ – Unplayable ❌

THE DIALOGUE AGGHHH!

★½ – Unplayable ❌

Hard to say much about it, demo shows very little. A bullet-hell, without many bullets?
